Purpose: Rodent models suggest that when respiratory demands increase during an exercise program, tongue and thyroarytenoid muscles engage to maintain a patent airway, leading to increased muscle strength. This suggests that nonspecific exercises that increase respiratory rate may improve swallowing. As such, the purpose of this proof-of-principle study was to determine the potential for whole-body exercise to improve tongue strength, cough strength, and self-reported swallowing function in older adults with Parkinson's disease (PD).

Design: This was a secondary analysis of data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS) using general linear models with a standard stepwise approach.
Setting: Community.
Article Synopsis
- - Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a severe lung disease with no cure besides lung transplantation, and its mechanisms are not fully understood.
- - Research indicates that a deficiency in the innate immune receptor TLR5 increases the risk of IPF in humans and raises vulnerability to lung damage and fibrosis in mice; activating TLR5 protects against these issues.
- - The protective effects of TLR5 are linked to its role in promoting healthy microbial balance in the lungs, with disrupted microbiomes seen in both IPF patients and TLR5-deficient mice.
Background: After menopause, reductions in ovarian hormones increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Aerobic exercise training has been shown to reduce cardiovascular risk in older adults, but its effectiveness in postmenopausal females is less definitive.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to examine the: (1) effects of aerobic training, and (2) association between aerobic training intensity and cardiometabolic health outcomes in postmenopausal females.
Objective: To examine the effects of strength training on patient-important outcomes of stroke recovery and to quantify the influence of the exercise prescription on treatment effects.
Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Data Sources: Eight electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, EMCARE, AMED, PsycINFO, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science) and two clinical trial registries (ClinicalTrials.
